Description

Hello and welcome to this mid week edition of The Big Run...
On today's episode Im joined by Pippa Wolven. 
2x English Schools & 4x British Universities & Colleges Sport (BUCS) Champion Commonwealth Games, European XC & World XC athlete
As Founder of Project RED-S, Pippa is beyond passionate about moving the dial on this issue in sports. Competing in international athletics for over a decade while studying in the UK and USA brought Pippa's fair share of highs and lows - including RED-S. It was through her struggle to find the resources she needed to diagnose and overcome the issue that she realised the extent of the problem in sports. She subsequently became a mentor and qualified Positive Psychology Coach to help others make sense of their own diagnosis and recovery process.
In this episode, we track through Pippa's own experience of the condition, debunk some major myths surrounding it and offer some practical advice for people who may be struggling with it or worried about other athletes that are.
